Constellation Software, headquartered in Toronto and led by president and chairman Mark Leonard, has grown significantly since its founding in 1995. A provider of software and services to select industries in the public and private sector markets, Constellation made $773 million last year in revenue, an increase of 22%.

The company hit $99.99 per share on the TSX last Wednesday. It currently sits at just over $90 per share, still much higher than their 52-week low of $53.26.

And Reuters reported last Wednesday that the company posted a 72% rise in quarterly profit. This has caused the stock to surge 60% in the last three months.

The 20,000-customer company, operating in 30 countries, has 2,200 employees. The company acquires, manages, and builds vertical market software businesses that provide mission-critical software solutions to address the specific needs of its customers in those industries.
